Hi Guys.
Today's episode shed light some of most relevant issues. Without delay, here is today's top five.
1) An age old question: This was asked then and this is being asked even now. Why? Why should we let a girl be educated? Why should we let a girl empowered? Why should we let a girl have self-confidence? Why should we let a girl be...a HUMAN, as human as a any man?
Let us not assign a woman any divine power and say she is like a Goddess and worship her. Then slay her for having flaws.
Let us not treat her as a chattel of a man and treat her like a slave. Then slay her for having confidence, ambition and an opinion.
Let us see her as the HUMAN that she is with all the flaws, imperfections, desires, wishes, problems, goals as any other HUMAN being.
Let us reflect on this. It is high time.
2) Education: Education enables you, empower you. Gives you self-confidence. Gives you capacity to think for your self. Education helps you face this mess of a life. Education helps you make sense of this chaos of the world. Education is not just schooling. So, why should not a girl be prepared for her future, just as a boy? Both need to live this world. Give her education and see for yourself. The girl can be working inside the house or outside, she is going to do it with dignity, self confidence and respect.
Two incidents in my own family. Two of my cousins lost their husbands recently. Both of them are in their middle thirties and have one girl child. One cousin picked herself up, got herself a job which she liked, moved to a new city and started a new life for herself and her kid. She is educated, have seen the world, have traveled. She has self confidence.
The second cousin is still stuck in an impasse, unable to move forward. She is at the mercy of her in-laws,could not find a good job which would support herself and her kid. She is not educated, got married when she was very young and has not seen the outside world at all.
You think on this.
3) Empathy: This is an emotion which is not appreciated enough. Empathy and not sympathy which would make you a better person. Empathy allows you to be non-judgmental. Empathy allows you understand other person's pain. Empathy allows other persons to make mistakes, just like how you make mistakes. Empathy allows you to be compassionate. Empathy tells it is okay to make mistakes, you just need to realize it and move forward. There is no place for guilt or shame when there is empathy.
4) Unbridled joy: No, I am not talking about happiness. I am not talking about being content. I am talking about Joy...that uncontrolled, Unbridled joy. When have we last felt it?
Joy is dancing in the rain, not caring about what people will think or how you will catch cold.
Joy is taking a moment in your busy day and look around you, take a break and eat a chocolate.
Joy is...being.
Let me know when have you faced such Joy.
5) Rules and Emotions: Three mothers curtailed their immense longing to see their sons, whom they have not seen for so many years. All for some rules. When it comes to love, is any rule more important?
